High Speed Machining DVD
High Speed Machining DVD was produced in large part due to the technological advances that encompass high speed machining centres, tooling, programming and software.
By integrating these various system components, manufacturers are using HSM to reduce their cycle times, increase throughput, shorten machining time, and minimise non-machining time while yielding high precision parts having a favourable cost/performance ratio.
Part of the Manufacturing Insights series, High Speed Machining DVD features four companies that have successfully implemented and applied high speed machining systems including:
- Trutron Corporation, whose use of high speed machining substantially reduced the number of operations needed to machine its EDM electrodes and precision heat treated parts.
- Protomatic Incorporated, a high-quality prototype and short-run production machining company who relied on two outside vendors during their transition to high speed machining to overcome some initial coolant and tool vibration issues.
- Gosiger 3D, an applications engineering company working with its customers to replace time and cost-intensive manufacturing processes entirely with both hardmilling and high speed machining systems. Software using trochoidal interpolation for tool path creation is also highlighted.
- Metlfab Incorporated, a prototyping company that boasts a turnaround time of eight-hours on some prototypes due to their use of high-speed machining.
- High Speed Machining DVD is now available from Improvement Tools.com .
